Largest Bitcoin Leverage Unwind in Nearly a Year Triggered by Iran-Israel Tensions

Geopolitical shockwaves just forced crypto's most brutal margin call since 2024.

Liquidations hit overdrive

Traders got caught with their leverage pants down when Middle East tensions triggered a $2B+ derivatives bloodbath. The market's response? A textbook 'sell everything' panic.

Whale watching season opens early

Those 100x perpetual contracts didn't look so smart when BTC price action turned into a geopolitical puppet. Cue the cascade of stop-losses hitting like dominoes.

The silver lining playbook

Every flush creates opportunity—smart money's already circling like vultures to scoop up discounted positions. Because nothing says 'hedge against WW3' quite like digital gold... until the next black swan arrives.

Bonus jab: Traders who survived this are either geniuses or just forgot to check their phones during the crash.
